Stolen Childhood !
Serene she appears on outward glance,
I've seen her lost in frozen stare,
Past demons strain her countenance,
A hurt so deep...her heart not there.
That surface I probed with warm caress,
While in retreat her anger vent,
Lest I usurp forbidden distress,
No hardened sledge could ever dent.
Episodic flashbacks of lonely grief,
A young girls teardrops long since dried,
Her childhood stolen by demonic thief,
Tears lost in exile....yearning to be cried !
I've seen her lost in frozen stare,
Past demons strain her countenance,
A hurt so deep...her heart not there.
That surface I probed with warm caress,
While in retreat her anger vent,
Lest I usurp forbidden distress,
No hardened sledge could ever dent.
Episodic flashbacks of lonely grief,
A young girls teardrops long since dried,
Her childhood stolen by demonic thief,
Tears lost in exile....yearning to be cried !

I know this cannot be the dark joke you were referring to
This is "Beautiful", yes dark, but certainly not a joke!
I must have missed it again!
Going to check it out!
Great Poem Mick!
Robert
I tell you the truth Mick, "I didn't even see it until you mentioned it!...must be that way for the others, for there is
absolutely nothing "NOT TO LIKE" about this poem!
I Love It!
I am sure the others will find it...and love it too!
Hahahaha
